Callahan Construction Managers breaks ground for Yonkers development with Rose Associates and Perkins Eastman

Yonkers, NY Callahan Construction Managers, a full-service construction firm, has broken ground at 57 Alexander St. The project is being developed by Rose Associates with Perkins Eastman serving as the architect.

The development is situated on a four-acre parcel and will consist of a 440-unit, seven-story building located on the Hudson River waterfront. The project will feature a mix of studio, one- and two-bedroom apartment homes, as well as two-level podium CIP garage. 25,000 s/f of amenities will include a landscaped public esplanade with access to the  Hudson River waterfront, an outdoor heated swimming pool, roof deck with grilling stations and dining areas, fitness  center with strength training and cardio equipment, golf simulator, game room and co-working resident lounge. The  project is expected to deliver in phases throughout 2023.

57 Alexander St., which is set within a Qualified Opportunity Zone, will also require coordination with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) for environmental cleanup. Waterfront access work includes construction of the new rip rap shoreline revetment and demolition and reconstruction of piers.

The property is close to the Yonkers Metro North commuter rail and Amtrak train, and within a short  distance of the retail and dining in the city’s downtown waterfront district.

“Callahan is proud to be a part of this vibrant project,” said David Morrow, director of New York operations at Callahan. “This development will contribute to the growth of the community along the Hudson by  offering a lifestyle and transit-oriented living experience just minutes from the waterfront district.”

“We selected Callahan Construction for this exciting project based on their experience and proven track record and  we’re pleased with positive momentum at the site.” Said Chris Gibaldi, managing director of development at Rose  Associates. “Downtown Yonkers’ proximity to Manhattan, combined with it river views, history, and variety of  restaurants and shopping make it a great place to live and we are pleased to be part of its continued resurgence.”

“The property location with sweeping views of the Hudson River and Palisades offered us incredible design opportunities  for the amenity-rich building,” said Carl Ordemann, AIA, principal and director at Perkins Eastman. “We are excited to  bring Rose Associates’ vision into reality working as partners with Callahan Construction Managers.”

57 Alexander St. marks Callahan’s first residential project from its New York office, which opened in White Plains in 2021, and the second groundbreaking from the New York office after the team started construction at LCB Senior  Living in Basking Ridge, N.J. in November 2021.
